How about those guys in uk and us? can you use your remote key to fold the side mirror after locking? hold the lock button for 2-3secs and you shall see the side mirrors fold in. Before I send my car back to replace the LCD screen, my indash cd player always go back to track 1 after restart the car. After I got my LCD replaced, it doesn;t happen anymore. It goes back to the track it last played.

I wonder what functions in the car we don't know of or what else some have and some don't have. I find this "settings" of this car quite inconsistence. Anyway to check the software version? I tried the method some posted in this forum like holding on the trip button for 10 secs but it doesn't work.

It still is the most plausible explanation!

I think I must be sleeping that day when the switch went in. I didn't even notice that i hit on that switch.

Ed520,

toto already confirmed that there is no software upgrades. Therefore your mirror will not retract using car key (holding the lock button more than 3 secs). Mine is a limited edition, therefore it comes with it.

from where did that come? where do you live (country?)

i've never heard word one from anyone on this or other boards about Limited Editions... do you mean SE? If so, they all are (UK, so far, they all are anyway)

cheers
